My starting point was the moment when I asked myself: “Where did my money go and why I can’t buy a few more drinks?” while spending some time in a local bar with friends. After that, I realized I can’t find a solution that would fit my needs. Then I thought about how many people have the same struggle and finally decided to create a product to help people with the same questions.

Looking through the trash at my day job at MoMA. 10 years later my company was on the Inc's Fastest growing list x3
I was a struggling Artist trying to make my way in the Art World when I found some prototypes for a product MoMA was developing that had magnets inside. I broke open the plastic parts to extract the magnets and as I placed them on my desk they hit a critical mass and all magnetized together into a straight line.
I thought, Wow what if I could make jewelry that was only held together with magnets.
This was pre-kickstarter and pre-Alibaba, I finally got a box of magnets custom made after about a year of faxing manufacturers and invented the "Bandoleer Magnetic Bracelet"
I made a video of different "magic" tricks I would perform at trade shows to get buyers attention and posted it as my 1st Ever Video on YouTube in November 2006, by December it was the #1 Video on YouTube.
I sold more jewelry in 3 months than I would have made in 5 years at my day job. I've been designing and inventing products and all sorts of things for 20+ years. I'm about to bring out a new product in the Fall that I'm very excited about a Modular Wallet that I hope will be a game changer. BE MIGHTY!

What sparked my startup journey was the desire to solve a real problem and make a meaningful impact. I saw a gap in the market and recognized the potential to create a solution that could transform how businesses operate. The passion for innovation and the drive to build something from scratch ignited our startup journey. We were motivated by the opportunity to push boundaries and create value for customers.
It's been an exhilarating journey so far, filled with challenges and triumphs, but the satisfaction of seeing our vision come to life keeps us fueled and excited for what lies ahead.

The reason for my startup?
well, I would say it's based on a hostel problem I encountered when I first got into college; and funny enough, my co-founder had also experienced the problem and then he suggested an idea on how to solve the problem and now we're both brainstorming on what to build and show to people.
